This military romance really drew me in and I could not put it down, I read it in one day. There are so many different mysteries surrounding Kael, but I think that’s part of what draws you in to his character.

I love Anna Todd! Love her books. This one was a bit different. I love that this book was less spicy, and more of a journey. It really ends on a cliffhanger and will continue in the next book. I wish I would've waited to read this until the second book was out because the suspense is killing me! And, I'm worried I'll forget the details of this book by the time the second book is out. Anna did release the first two chapters of it though!! Super excited to read The Burning

DID NOT FINISH: 20%

The reviews for this were so up and down so I decided to give it a shot. I hate not finishing books but I couldn't do it. I was honestly bored. 75ish pages in and we've just finished the first day in the life of the OFC. I mean, I don't want to rush the book but can we move along. 

This book had some really good moments that made you want to read more, and I was hooked, but I need a happy ish ending and this book just made me extremely sad throughout the entirety. While that can sometimes be a good thing, this made me sad without even getting invested in the characters. In any capacity I wouldn’t recommend it.

I adored this story. It was so many things. It was sweet. It was heartbreaking. It was heartwarming. It was everything you want in a romance and more. I loved the relationship between the characters and seeing them progress more and more. Seeing the conversations develop more. It was so adorable and I loved it. I can't wait to read more from this story and these characters. I can't wait to see where Anna takes them next.
